Historic mill closing Greenfield Mills is 167 years old BY PATRICK REDMOND predmond@kpcmedia.com

GREENFIELD MILLS — David Rinkel isn’t exactly sure just what his next move is. Rinkel, the owner of Greenfield Mills, a LaGrange County water-powered mill that has been part of the local landscape for nearly 170 years, said this week that he is shutting down the LaGrange County institution and putting it up for sale. Greenfield Mills, which has been producing New Rinkel brand flours and pancake mixes for generations, has been operated by the Rinkel family for over a century. Rinkel, 58, admits that shutting down his family’s business was not an easy decision to reach. “What are you going to do? It’s been in my family for 109 years, how do you shut down something like this?” he said, gesturing to the mill behind him. The mill was built in the northeast corner of LaGrange County not long after the first settlers started to arrive. It used the Fawn River to power the mill, and later to spin two water-driven turbines that generated enough electricity to run the mill, with enough surplus to create the state’s smallest power utility. Rinkel made the announcement about shutting down the mill on its Facebook page. He wrote, “It is with deep emotion and sadness that I write to inform you that Greenfield Mills will be closing, and is for sale. We have tried our hardest over the past 9 years to keep the Mill and legacy that it has going, but with the economy we just can’t make ends meet.” Rinkel, like his brothers and sister, grew up working in the mill with his mother and father.He left Greenfield Mills after high school to learn mechanics and spent more than 20 years away from home, working at various car dealerships in the area. He and his family — his wife

David Rinkel, owner of Greenfield Mills, a 167-year-old business in LaGrange County, has announced it will be shutting down and closing its doors this year. Rinkle, whose family has run the mill for 109 years, said the mill no longer is making ends meet.

and two adult children — decided to return to Greenfield Mills nine years ago to take over the struggling mill from his mother. Several of the county’s larger bakeries have closed in the last two decades, forcing operations such as Greenfield Mills to look elsewhere for business. “This place was already upside down when I took it over,” Rinkel said. “We did everything we could think of to try and save it. I am the fourth generation of my family to operate the mill. I wanted to pass that on to the fifth and sixth generations.” The mill’s Facebook post went on to say, “The last 9 years that my immediate family has operated the mill have been the best in my life. The mill has taught us many things, and we have developed many friends through it. We truly appreciate each of our loyal customers and the support that you have given us over the years. We do hope that one day the mill will open back up so that others can learn the great amount of history that it has to offer.” Rinkel said mill’s store will remain open to sell products remaining in stock. The mill sits on 11/2 acres in the northeast corner Lagrange County. In addition to the mill,

Rinkel operates a small, two-turbine power utility produces electricity for 15 homes, one barn and two Rinkel mills. Excess electricity is sold to NIPSCO. Much of the equipment in the mills is as old as the 167-yearold building and is described by Rinkel as “functioning artifacts that make Greenfield Mills a living history.” The building is constructed of white oak timber beams, cut in 1846, measuring as much as 50 feet long and 10 inches square. Rinkel said the competitive nature of the mill business has made it almost impossible for smaller operations such as Greenfield Mills to stay in business. “When the bank account is empty, what are you going to do?” he asked.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Responding to critics, President Barack Obama promised Friday to work with Congress on “appropriate reforms” for domestic surveillance programs that were thrust into the public eye by leaker Edward Snowden, saying he understands why Americans are skeptical about the collection of telephone and Internet information. “It’s not enough for me to have confidence in these programs,” the president declared at a White House news conference shortly before a scheduled departure on a weeklong vacation. ” The American people have to have confidence in them as well.” The president announced a series of changes in a program begun under the anti-terror Patriot Act that was passed in the wake of the terror attacks of Sept, 11, 2001. As for Snowden, recently granted temporary asylum by Russia, Obama said he is not a patriot, as some have suggested, and challenged him to return to the United States to face espionage charges. And on Russia, he said that given recent differences over Syria, human rights and Snowden, it is “probably appropriate for us to take a pause, reassess where it is that Russia is going … and recalibrate the relationship.” The hour-long news conference ranged over numerous issues, although the president became especially animated when the questions turned to Republicans in Congress. He said they would risk the wrath of the public if they vote to shut down the government this fall in an attempt to cut off funding for his signature health care program. He said that while he was receptive to House Republicans proposing an alternative immigration bill, his preference was for a vote on a Senate-passed measure that combines border security with a chance at citizenship for millions of immigrants living in the country illegally. He said he was “absolutely certain” such a bill would pass in the GOP-controlled U.S. House. Nor did he mince his words about the United States’ deteriorating relationship with Russia. He said President Vladimir Putin’s recent decision to grant asylum to Snowden was merely the latest in a series of differences between the two countries, including a response to the Syrian civil war and to human rights issues. “I’ve encouraged Mr. Putin to look forward rather than backward,” Obama said, evoking memories of relations between the United States and the former Soviet Union. The president, who just this week canceled a planned summit meeting with Putin, added, “It is probably appropriate for us to take a pause, reassess where it is

Postal service had $740 million third-quarter loss WASHINGTON (AP) — The Postal Service has trimmed its losses to $740 million over the last three months by consolidating processing facilities, cutting hours for workers and post offices and reducing workers’ compensation costs, the agency said Friday. Still, year-to-date, the Postal Service had losses totaling $3.9 billion, and the agency said that

without help from Congress its financial woes will worsen. The report for the financial quarter ending June 30 comes as Congress considers proposals to fix the agency’s finances. The agency lost $16 billion last year and is trying to restructure its retail, delivery and mail-processing operations. Over the first nine months of its fiscal year, the Postal Service said

104 mail processing facilities were consolidated, career employee work hours were reduced by about 41 million and operating hours at 7,397 post offices were reduced. The service wants to end most Saturday and door-to-door mail delivery. It also is seeking to reduce its congressionally mandated $5.6 billion annual payment for future retiree health benefits. The agency says ending

Saturday mail delivery would save $2 billion each year. Joe Corbett, the agency’s chief financial officer, said in a statement that “without comprehensive postal reform legislation signed into law, our hands are tied and we expect multibillion dollar annual losses to continue.” The third-quarter loss was far less than its $5.2 billion loss for the same period last year.

AUBURN — Services were held Friday for Solomon Wickey, an Amish faith healer and herbalist who had a following that stretched around the globe. Wickey, 75, died Monday at his home. He married Anna Mae Graber on Jan. 29, 1959, and she survives in Auburn. The Internet is filled with testimonials from people who said they were healed by Wickey, including those with ailments such as leukemia. Wickey did not charge for his

services, according to various websites and media reports, but he did sell books and herbs from his home office on C.R. 43. Wickey was the subject of a book, “Solomon’s Touch: The life and work of Solomon J. Wickey,” that is still available on Amazon. com. The book describes him as being “happy, fun loving, musician, carpenter, gardener, fisherman; devoted husband, father, brother and friend.” Wickey’s efforts were not without controversy. Media reports indicate that in the early 1980s he was the target of a civil complaint from the Indiana Attorney

General’s Office for allegedly practicing medicine without a license. There were no such complaints in DeKalb County, where Wickey had resided for more than a decade, according to DeKalb County police. Chief Deputy Gerald Kline said he did respond to a complaint in the early 2000s from a neighbor who said cars were blocking the roadway as people waited to see Wickey. “They were lined up clear down C.R. 43 to C.R. 60,” Kline said. The chief deputy talked to one man who had been parked along

the road. “He had driven from Florida to come see him,” Kline said. Wickey’s healing was not a recent phenomenon. Wickey’s nephew, David Girod of Switzerland County, said there was a lot of demand for Wickey’s healing abilities. “They’d fly in here and set up tents so they could be first in line when his office opened,” Girod recalled. “They came from all walks of life. It was unreal.” Girod described his uncle as likeable. Burial was in Spencerville Amish Cemetery at Spencerville.

AUBURN — A Butler man with a lengthy criminal history was sentenced Friday to 15 years in prison for conspiracy to manufacture methamphetamine. Carl Evanoff, of the 100 block of East Main Street, pleaded guilty to the Class B felony as part of a plea agreement. Judge Kevin Wallace handed down the

Correction. Pastor Steve Eyers testified he has been meeting with Evanoff for about six months and that he believes Evanoff is sincere in his desire to become involved in programs while in prison. “He realizes he has a weakness and is looking for assistance,” Eyers said. Evanoff’s attorney, Robert Hardy, noted a presentence report prepared by the DeKalb County Probation Department recommends a sentence of 15 years with up to three years suspended. Hardy argued a 12-year sentence with two years suspended would be more appropriate. DeKalb County chief deputy prosecutor Donald P. Shively recommended a 20-year sentence with 10 years suspended and 10 years of probation. Evanoff said he liked Shively’s recommendation, “Probation will hold me accountable,” Evanoff said. “I’m still willing to do my time and be held accountable when I get out.” But Wallace settled on a 15-year prison term with no probation afterward.

Wallace said Evanoff has been charged with criminal offenses in 25 separate instances and has 13 prior misdemeanor and eight prior felony convictions. Evanoff has violated probation and parole rules on multiple occasions, Wallace added. Evanoff purchased ephedrine four times between Oct. 11, 2010, and April 14, 2011, while he was on parole and, after going off parole, made 25 ephedrine purchases from April 2011 until his arrest in August 2012, Wallace noted. Wallace agreed that Evanoff does well when he has the structure of prison or jail, but has not done well when he is outside of that structure. Evanoff received credit against the 15-year sentence for the 360 days he has served in jail while his case was pending. As part of the plea agreement, the state dismissed related charges of dealing methamphetamine, a Class A felony, and operating a vehicle as a habitual traffic violator, a Class D felony.

Killing Giggles Global average temperature has been flat for a decade. But frightening myths about global warming continue. We’re told there are more hurricanes now. We’re told that hurricanes are stronger. But the National Hurricane Center says it isn’t so. Meteorologist Maria Molina told me it’s not surprising that climatologists assumed hurricanes would get worse. “Hurricanes need warm ocean waters,” but it turns out that “hurricanes are a lot more complicated than just warm ocean waters.” Computer models have long predicted nasty JOHN effects from our production of greenhouse gasses. STOSSEL But the nasty effects have not appeared. As far as hurricanes, more hit the United States in the 1880s than recently. Why do people believe that global warming has already created bigger storms? Because when “experts” repeatedly tell us that global warming will wreck the Earth, we start to fit each bad storm into the disaster narrative that’s already in our heads. Also, attention-seeking media wail about increased property damage from hurricanes. And it’s true! Costs have grown! But that’s because more people build on coastlines, not because storms are stronger or more frequent. Also, thanks to modern media and camera phones, we hear more about storms, and see the damage. People think Hurricane Katrina, which killed 1,800 people, was the deadliest storm ever. But the 1900 Galveston hurricane killed 10,000 people. We just didn’t have so much media then. Climatologist Patrick Michaels, director of the Center for the Study of Science at the Cato Institute, says humans don’t have as much impact on global temperature as the doomsayers feared. “Forecasts of global warming — particularly in the last two years — have begun to come down,” he says. “We’re seeing the so-called ‘sensitivity’ of temperature being reduced by 40 percent in the new climate models. It means we’re going to live.” Michaels is tired of dire predictions. “I have lived through nine end-of-the-world environmental apocalypses, beginning with (the 1962 environmental book) ‘Silent Spring,’ and, you know, we’re still here.” As a consumer reporter, I fell for dire predictions about cellphones, Y2K and pesticides. Maybe the new scare will be killer bees, flesh-eating bacteria or bird flu. The media always hype something. Since this is hurricane season, let’s at least debunk one specific myth about preparing for hurricanes: the idea you should use masking tape to put X’s on your windows. Government brochures did recommend that in the 1930s, but now the National Hurricane Center calls it a mistake. It won’t stop glass from shattering, says Molina, but “now you have larger pieces of glass — potentially deadlier pieces of glass — flying around. … What you should be doing during a hurricane is be in a room with no windows and in a lower part of your home.” I’m a global warming skeptic not because I don’t believe the world will get warmer. It may. Climate changes. It always has. Man’s carbon output might make it worse. But just because humans sometimes damage the environment doesn’t mean government is competent to fix the problem. That’s the biggest myth of all. Government is the same institution that takes over forests to “protect” them — but then builds logging roads into forests to cut down trees that unsubsidized, private roads might never have reached. The forests end up smaller, but people still assume they’re safer in government hands than in greedy private hands. Government is the institution that puts itself in charge of caring for wildlife but recently sent a dozen armed agents into a Wisconsin animal shelter to seize and kill a baby deer named Giggles who was being nursed back to health there, since Giggles wasn’t in the right type of approved shelter. When government screws up, we’re supposed to say, “They meant well.” When individuals pursuing their own interests screw up, we’re supposed to feel ashamed of industrial civilization and let government punish and control us all. If we let it do that, government will do to the economy what it did to Giggles.

Smaltz fails to lead against Common Core To the editor: I read with great interest Kathy Douglas’ Aug. 6 letter to The Star which documented state Rep. Ben Smaltz’s departure from fiscal conservatism this past legislative session. He certainly has been a “big spender.” My disappointment with Rep. Smaltz is over his refusal to assume a leadership role in education the way he pledged during his campaign. Common Core is one of largest education issues of the past 50 years, and Rep. Smaltz has not been a profile in courage on this issue. Common Core is a federal power grab aimed at controlling children in public schools, private schools, charter schools, home schools, trade schools, colleges and later during their careers. Common Core will hurt Hoosier kids in four ways: First, control of curriculum will be removed from local communities and

states in favor of federal rules. Second, teachers will no longer spend their days teaching, but rather will monitor endless tasks and track hundreds of data points on each child and on the child’s family. This data will be stored and will follow each student throughout his or her life. The federal government will not only have access to this data, but can share it with anyone they choose without asking permission from the student or parent. Third, the new federal curriculum can be used to drive a wedge between parents and children. For example, elementary students are to be taught, in school, that a mother who urges her child to clean his or her room is “nagging.” Emotional, persuasive words trump logical, systematic articulation. Finally, since Indiana already has standards for learning that are higher than those of Common Core, Hoosier children would be stepping backward when it comes to subject matter proficiency at each grade level.

Despite pledging to lead on education issues during his campaign, Rep. Smaltz has not shown leadership in Indiana’s push to stop Common Core. Long after the facts were made clear, he kept insisting that he needed to study Common Core and refusing to come out strongly against this huge federal power grab. Rep. Smaltz supported HEA 1427, the one-year pause on Common Core, only reluctantly, and only at the last minute. He did not attend the huge Aug. 3 gathering in Fort Wayne, sponsored by those working to put an end to Common Core in Indiana. Sen. Kruse was there. Two members of the state school board were there. Over 400 citizens were there. Common Core is a major threat to our children in DeKalb County and around Indiana. I only wish Rep. Smaltz would show the same zeal for stopping Common Core that he has shown for increased state spending. Ferlin Heath Auburn

It is time to leave one home for another I hang up the broom knowing I have swept up most of the sand from my Mad Mag Studio. I leave a farewell note to myself on the chalkboard and pull shut the old wooden door with the lace curtain. Just one more task completed before the journey begins. The purple satchell is packed and it is time to go. I hum a bit of “Home is an Island,” sung by Rob and Sundae, and toss the bag in the car. The five-hour journey toward the Amtrak train station takes me across the Hatteras Inlet and eventually through the Chesapeake Bay. Land now takes precedence over sea letting my Ocracoke summer slip away. A short night’s rest and it is time to board the train. We, the strangers, stand shoulder to shoulder as we show our boarding passes and take our seats. I find my seat and settle in. Some folks go right to sleep. Others pull out laptops to complete work and some text constantly. I sit like a perched eagle watching and listening to conversations. One young girl is on her way to college. Her dad helps her get settled into her seat, hugs her goodbye and leaves the train. He leans against the brick wall of the Amtrak station, but comes back onto the train. Tears are streaming

down his face as he tells his daughter farewell once again. I bite my bottom lip so I don’t cry as well. I remember those days. He leaves again, puts his sunglasses on and waves until we are gone. I am also numb with my normal confusion on this trip. “Where you headed?” they ask. “Home,” I say, “Indiana.” “Where LOU ANN have you they HOMAN- been?” ask. “Home,” SAYLOR I say, “Ocracoke.” We ramble and sway down the tracks past old American towns. We pass these towns that have seen firsthand battles of the Revolutionary and the Civil wars. My seat mate is a Civil War re-enactor and he tells me about his summer adventure. I am happy to learn that which I do not know. By mid-afternoon we arrive in Washington D.C. I pull my camera out to get a photo of the Capitol Building. We come to a final halt at Union Station where I have a three-hour wait. I

set my bags down inside the station and enjoy the bustling activity. This is not Ocracoke or Angola, I muse to myself. I watch closely for Senators or reporters or movie stars. I happen to be close to the shoe shine station. A gentleman resembling Harrison Ford (but is not) climbs up into the chair for his shoeshine. He is dressed impeccably … hair, clothes … and his reading material is “The Wall Street Journal.” When his shoes are shined, he hands over his credit card and then is on his way. All this time he does not make eye contact or speak to the boy. I watch intently wanting him to acknowledge him with a glance or a nod, but he does not. We board the Capitol Limited two hours late, but that is what makes it a journey. I take dinner in the dining car with a woman traveling with her granddaughter. We break bread together and tell stories as rain streaks our train window. Another gentleman joins us and shares stories of his trip to Italy. His voice is steady as he takes us to the Coliseum and to Venice. I have traveled there once upon a time, but I do not interrupt his stories with mine. He is entertaining. It is late when we say

farewell and go back to our own seats. Sleep does not come easily to me on this night of travel. At 2 in the morning the folks surrounding me turn on their lights and munch on cereal and chocolate. It seems as if we are circled around the hobo campfire in those dark hours. I recite Sandburg because I must, and I hear my own voice trailing off into the distance. By early dawn we travel through Cleveland, Toledo, and into Indiana. I squint through my window until I finally see the corn of August. Shadows of pink bounce off morning fields where the chores have begun, and I am home. Grass clutches at the dark dirt with finger holds. Let it be blue grass, barley, rye or wheat, Let it be button weed or butter-and-eggs, Let it be Johnny-jump-ups springing clean blue streaks, Grassroots down under put fingers into dark dirt. — Carl Sandburg LOU ANN HOMAN-SAYLOR lives in Angola at the White Picket Gardens where you can find her gardening or writing late into the night under the light of her frayed scarlet lamp. She is a storyteller, teacher, writer, actress and a collector of front porch stories.

What Others Say • Vaccinating for HPV is lagging In Afghanistan, the Taliban has murdered United Nations health workers attempting to administer the polio vaccine in rural villagers and has convinced villagers that the vaccine is a Western plot to infect Afghan children. While U.S. health workers aren’t being gunned down, misguided, backward thinking also has prevented American families from taking full advantage of a vaccine that could

prevent thousands of cases of cervical cancer each year. Researchers believe that the Gardasil vaccine to block infection by the human papillomavirus could prevent up to 70 percent of all cervical cancers and 90 percent of genital warts. But the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported last week that immunization rates across the nation have stalled over the last year. … HPVs are the most common cause of sexually transmitted infections. More than half of people who are sexually active

become infected with one of the more than 40 types of HPV that are known to spread during vaginal, oral or anal sex, according to the National Cancer Institute. The viruses are responsible for nearly all cases of cervical cancer and most cases of anal cancer. The viruses also cause more than half of the cancers in the middle part of the throat and about half of vaginal, vulvular and penile cancers. But the vaccine can practically eliminate that risk, especially if

it is administered to teens before they become sexually active so their bodies can develop immunity. Since 2006, the Advisory Committee on Immunization practices has recommended routine vaccination of adolescent girls ages 11 or 12. The need to inoculate children against HPV remains no matter who pays for it. We shouldn’t let superstition, ignorance — or false economy — deter us from ensuring that as many as possible receive this lifesaving vaccine. The Herald, Rock Hill, S.C.

Indiana joins push to allow public body prayers INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Indiana is one of 22 states hoping the U.S. Supreme Court will allow prayers that endorse a specific religion before public government meetings. The Indiana attorney general’s office last week signed onto a friend-ofthe-court brief asking the U.S. Supreme Court to exempt public bodies from screening opening prayers for sectarian references. The high court’s justices said in May they would review a federal appeals court ruling that found upstate New York town of Greece, a Rochester suburb, had violated the Constitution by opening nearly every meeting over an 11-year span with prayers that stressed Christianity.

EAST HAVEN, Conn. (AP) — A small plane crashed in a working-class neighborhood near an airport Friday and engulfed two houses in flames, killing at least two people and leaving a third feared dead. The multi-engine, propeller-driven plane struck two small homes a few blocks from Tweed New Haven Airport as it came in for a landing. Soon after the crash, officials said at least three people were missing: the pilot and two children in one of the houses, ages 1 and 13. Gov. Dannel P. Malloy later said the plane also may have been carrying two passengers but that officials were still trying to verify whether that was true.

SANAA, Yemen (AP) — At least seven suspected militants from Saudi Arabia were among the alleged al-Qaida members killed in Yemen in a recent wave of U.S. drone strikes, senior Yemeni officials said Friday, suggesting that Saudis are increasingly crossing the border to carry funds or seek terrorist training. With several U.S. diplomatic posts closed temporarily in Africa and the Middle East this week amid a global alert about terrorism, Washington evacuated most of its personnel from Lahore, Pakistan’s secondlargest city. The U.S., along with Britain, also flew diplomatic staff out of Yemen’s capital of Sanaa this week. Since July 27, drone attacks in Yemen’s southern and central provinces have killed a total of 34 militants suspected

“We haven’t recovered anybody at this point and we presume there is going to be a very bad outcome,” East Haven Fire Chief Douglas Jackson said early Friday afternoon. Less than two hours later, Malloy said rescuers had spotted two bodies but had not yet been recovered them. The plane’s fuselage had entered one of the houses and the recovery effort was focusing on the home’s basement, the governor said. The plane, a Rockwell International Turbo Commander 690B, flew out of Teterboro Airport in New Jersey and crashed at 11:25 a.m., according to the Federal Aviation Administration. Tweed’s airport manager, Lori Hoffman-Soares,

General said in an Aug. 2 statement. “Such prayers, rather, are expressions of private belief made in service to an elected body of citizens.” Indiana Civil Liberties Union of Indiana legal director Ken Falk said, “The Supreme Court has never ruled directly on the question when the prayers get more overt. How far can they go? That is the question in this case.” Members of both chambers of the Indiana General Assembly hold prayers before each session. Legislative leaders have said they invite faith leaders from diverse backgrounds to give the prayer, but most are led by Protestant clergy. House Speaker Brian Bosma was not available for comment Friday.

of being members of the country’s al-Qaida branch, known as al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula, security officials have said. On Thursday alone, the officials said U.S. drones conducted three airstrikes, killing 12 militants. The drone strikes occurred in areas where the terrorist group enjoys protection from anti-government tribes or hides in mountainous areas. The terror network bolstered its operations in Yemen more than a decade after key Saudi operatives fled here following a major crackdown in their homeland. The drone strikes and a U.S.-backed offensive that began in June 2012 have driven militants from territory they had seized a year earlier, during Yemen’s political turmoil amid the Arab Spring.

Court of Appeals said Greece should have made a greater effort to invite people from other faiths to open its monthly board meetings. Two residents who are not Christian complained that they felt marginalized by the steady stream of Christian prayers and challenged the practice. The Supreme Court has previously ruled that prayer that doesn’t endorse a particular religion is acceptable at public meetings. But Indiana and 21 other states want the justices to hold that sectarian prayer is also constitutional. “The Court should reject the assumption that the content of private citizens’ prayers before legislative assemblies is attributable exclusively to the government,” Indiana Attorney

A firefighter surveys the scene of a small plane crash Friday in East Haven, Conn.

said the pilot had been in communication with air traffic control and did not issue any distress calls. “All we know is that it missed the approach and continued on,” she said. A neighbor, David Esposito, said he heard a loud noise and then a thump. “No engine noise, nothing,” he said. “A woman was screaming her kids were in there,” he said. Esposito, a 54-year-old retired teacher, said he ran into the upstairs of the

house, where the woman believed her children were, but could not find them after frantically searching a crib and closets. He returned downstairs to search some more, but he dragged the woman out when the flames became too strong. Wilson Idrovo said he was working on a house nearby when his son said: “Daddy, the airplane is falling down.” Idrovo said he went into the house but couldn’t get into a room where the plane had crashed. “I feel so bad,” he said.

Among the contenders are former Treasury Secretary Larry Summers and Janet Yellen, the vice chair of the Fed, he said, adding that whoever replaces Ben Bernanke must focus his attention on keeping inflation in check and helping strengthen the recovery from the worst recession in decades.

While saying he won’t pick a Fed chairman until the fall, he expressed irritation at critics of Summers, including some Democrats in Congress, whom Obama said were engaging in “a standard Washington exercise that I don’t like” of launching pre-emptive attacks before an appointment has been made.

Jason Dufner hits from the fairway on the 14th hole during the second round of the PGA Championship Friday. Dufner tied a record by shooting a 63 in a major tournament.

over Masters champion Adam Scott, Jim Furyk and Matt Kuchar. At 9-under 131, Dufner tied the 36-hole record at the PGA Championship he now shares with six other players. Dufner was alone at the top, and in the company of some big names in history. His 63 broke the course record at Oak Hill held by Ben Hogan, Curtis Strange and Webb Simpson, who shot 64 about five hours earlier. Dufner became the 24th player to shoot 63 in a major — Greg Norman and Vijay Singh, both in the Hall of Fame, did it twice. And through it all, he barely cracked a smile. “He’s very calm,” said Stricker, who played alongside Dufner. “I’m sure he was churning on the inside. He just told me while we were signing our cards, he was like, ‘This is a lot for a Friday.’” The possibilities were endless on a day that began with three hours of a steady rain until the sun broke through and took all the bite out of Oak Hill. Simpson also had a chance at 63 until he made a bogey on the 16th hole of his round. U.S. Open champion Justin Rose shot 29 on

PITTSFORD, N.Y. (AP) — Nothing was dull about the way Jason Dufner played golf Friday at the PGA Championship. If anything, it was historic. Dufner holed out from the fairway for eagle, rolled in a putt across the green for par and kept making birdies until he stood 12 feet away from a shot at the lowest score in the 153 years of championship golf. One last birdie attempt didn’t even get to the hole, and Dufner had to settle for a recordtying round of 7-under 63. “Probably the worst putt I hit of the day, which is a little disappointing,” Dufner said. “But all in all, it’s a 63, and name on top of the leaderboard. So that’s a great position to be playing from.” It was the third time in the last seven years at the PGA Championship that a player had a putt at becoming the first player to shoot 62 in a major. Tiger Woods circled the hole at Southern Hills in 2007. Steve Stricker narrowly missed at Atlanta Athletic Club two years ago. Dufner didn’t feel disappointed for long. On a rain-softened Oak Hill, where pelt-sized divots were flying and birdies were falling, Dufner surged to a two-shot lead

Bears defense looks strong Kelly CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — New head coach, same opportunistic Chicago Bears defense. The Bears forced three first-half turnovers and linebacker Jonathan Bostic returned an interception 51 yards for a touchdown, but the Carolina Panthers spoiled Marc Trestman’s NFL head coaching debut with a 24-17 win over Friday. The Bears — who had four turnovers — picked up where they left off last season when they led the NFL with 44 takeaways and finished with nine defensive touchdowns, one shy of the league record. Problem was Chicago’s offense couldn’t do a thing for the better part of three quarters. Carolina’s second-year cornerback Josh Norman had two interceptions, including a 60-yard return for a touchdown against Matt Blanchard. The Bears had three turnovers and allowed seven sacks. “Certainly we didn’t do what we wanted or up to our expectations,” Trestman said of his offense. “… We’ve got work to do.” Jay Cutler was intercepted on Chicago’s first play from scrimmage by Norman, setting up a 3-yard touchdown pass from Cam Newton to Brandon LaFell. Cutler bounced back to complete 6 of 8 passes for 56 yards, but the Bears offense managed only a field goal in the first three quarters. Tight end Fendi Onobun dropped a wide open pass in the end zone from Josh McCown in the second quarter and the Bears turned the ball over on the next play at the Carolina 12.

upbeat so far SOUTH BEND (AP) — Notre Dame coach Brian Kelly was surprisingly upbeat about his team after five days of practice, and blunt about the benefit of bringing the Fighting Irish to a secluded camp 100 miles from campus. “Some of the best competitive practices that I’ve coached in a long time,” Kelly said Friday. “Now we haven’t played a game, and I’m not saying that equals 13 wins. But I’ve coached a lot of football and it’s been very competitive football. It’s fast football. It’s as fast as I’ve seen at Notre Dame. I hope that translates into winning football.” Speed has long been a question mark at Notre Dame and the Irish didn’t look nearly as fast as Alabama in losing 42-14 to the Crimson Tide in the national championship game in January. The Irish were reminded about that and other offseason problems — including the hoax on former linebacker Manti Te’o and the loss of starting quarterback Everett Golson because he’s been suspended from school — repeatedly during the offseason. Kelly said bringing the players to a retreat center in Marion in central Indiana helped the team escape.

Votto, Arroyo key Reds’ win Lions open with CINCINNATI (AP) — Joey Votto drove in a pair of runs with a single and a triple on Friday night, and Bronson Arroyo recovered from his roughest outing of the season, leading the Cincinnati Reds to a 7-2 victory over the San Diego Padres. The Reds have won three straight since getting embarrassed by the St. Louis Cardinals at home last weekend, dropping games by scores of 13-3 and 15-2. Arroyo (10-9) took the loss in that first game against the Cardinals, giving up seven runs in a season-low 3 2-3 innings. He was back on his game against San Diego, allowing only four hits in seven innings, including Logan Forsythe’s solo homer. Votto drove in the first two runs off Andrew Cashner (8-6), ending the right-hander’s streak of three straight wins. Brandon Phillips added a two-run homer off Tim Stauffer. San Diego’s sloppy fielding helped the Reds score twice in the fifth for a

victory over Jets BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

AP

Cincinnati’s Joey Votto drives in a run against the San Diego Padres in the

5-1 lead. It was a break-out night for Todd Frazier. The Reds third baseman doubled in the first inning, ending an 0-for-31 slump that was the longest by a Reds player since Drew Stubbs went out

first inning of Friday’s game. The Reds defeated the Padres, 7-2.

in 32 consecutive at-bats last season. He came around on Votto’s single, which gave the first baseman a seven-game hitting streak. Frazier opened the third with a walk and scored on Votto’s third triple of the

season, a drive off the wall in right field that deflected back toward the infield. Jay Bruce’s double made it 3-0. Frazier also had a walk and scored three times overall.

Braves run winning streak to 14 BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Justin Upton, Chris Johnson and Brian McCann homered, Brandon Beachy pitched eight strong innings and the Atlanta Braves beat the Miami Marlins 5-0 Friday night for their 14th straight victory. The Braves are one victory shy of tying their 2000 team for the longest winning streak since the franchise relocated to Atlanta in 1966. Beachy (1-0) scattered three hits, allowed one walk and struck out six in eight innings to win his third start back from elbow ligament replacement surgery on June 21, 2012. He made 67 of 99 pitches for strikes. With only 15 losses at Turner Field, Atlanta improved its home winning percentage to .722, best in the majors. The Braves were eight games ahead of secondplace Washington in the

NL East after losing their last game, July 24 at the New York, but now lead the division by 15½ games. The Marlins began the game having lost five straight by a total of seven runs, but their sixth consecutive loss unraveled early as Atlanta took a 4-0 lead in the first on Upton’s 22nd homer and Johnson’s three-run shot. After Johnson hit his eighth homer, Marlins starter Jacob Turner hit Dan Uggla in the upper left arm with a pitch, and Uggla yelled at the pitcher and catcher Jeff Mathis as he walked up the first base line. Home plate umpire Mike Estabrook issued a warning to both dugouts before Turner faced the next batter, and the game ended without another incident. One of the four runs was unearned because McCann reached on shortstop Adeiny Hechavarria’s fielding error.

McCann led off the third with his 17th homer to make it 5-0. Turner (3-4) allowed five hits and five runs — four earned — with three walks and five strikeouts in five innings. The right-hander dropped to 0-7 with a 3.71 ERA in 11 career road starts. Beachy, who had gone seven straight starts without a win, allowed a leadoff single to Christian Yelich in the first, but retired the next 11 batters he faced before Logan Morrison’s leadoff single in the fifth. The right-hander snapped a seven-start winless streak, earning a victory for the first time since pitching his first career shutout in a 7-0 victory over Miami on May 17, 2012. Miami’s third hit, a one-out double by pinch-hitter Juan Pierre in the sixth, but Beachy fielded a grounder from Yelich, the next batter, and threw Pierre

out at third. Johnson, who leads the NL with a .338 average, went 1 for 4. Over his last 40 games, the Braves’ third baseman is hitting .367. Nationals 9, Phillies 2 Dan Haren won his third straight winning start while Anthony Rendon and Ryan Zimmerman homered to help Washington snap a four-game losing streak by beating Philadelphia. Haren (7-11) limited the Phillies to two runs and four hits over seven innings for his first career win against Philadelphia in eight starts. He struck out seven without issuing a walk. John Lannan (3-5) allowed eight runs, nine hits and five walks over five innings. The Phillies have lost seven of their last nine games. Adam LaRoche snapped a 0-for-16 lifetime skid against Lannan with an RBI double in the fourth.

Mark Sanchez had an interception returned for a touchdown, and Geno Smith left with an apparent ankle injury. Not an ideal start for the New York Jets. Lions rookie Ziggy Ansah looked like a natural in his exhibition debut when he intercepted Sanchez’s pass and ran it back 14 yards for a touchdown, and Detroit went on to a 26-17 win over the Jets on Friday night. Smith, the rookie from West Virginia who is Sanchez’s main competition at quarterback this preseason, exited early in the third quarter after appearing to hurt his right ankle. Sanchez bounced back to throw a touchdown pass before leaving the game after three offensive series. He went 10 of 13 for 125 yards. Smith was 6 of 7 for 47 yards but did not lead any scoring drives. Detroit’s Matthew Stafford played two series, going 3 of 8 for 58 yards and leading the Lions to a field goal. All three of his completions went to Calvin Johnson. Cardinals 17, Packers 0 Stepfan Taylor rushed for 63 yards on 21 carries in his rookie debut, and the Arizona Cardinals picked apart the Green Bay Packers on both sides of the ball on their way to a 17-0. Tyrann Mathieu had a sack in his first game in two years, and also returned two punts for Arizona, which was playing its first game under new coach Bruce Arians. Aaron Rodgers connected with James Jones on a 50-yard gain in his only series, and Vince Young showed flashes of potential just three days after signing with Green Bay. But those were among the only highlights for the Packers. Texans 27, Vikings 13 DeAndre Hopkins caught a 34-yard touchdown pass for the Houston Texans in a preseason victory over the Minnesota Vikings. The Vikings showcased their rookie wide receiver,

too, during a flashy first half by Cordarrelle Patterson. Hopkins, the 27th overall pick in the draft, had four receptions for 52 yards. Patterson, taken two slots later, caught four passes for 54 yards and returned the opening kickoff 50 yards. Christian Ponder connected with Jerome Simpson for 15 yards right after that, but when he went back to Simpson on the next play the throw was a bit high and bounced off Simpson’s hands and into Shiloh Keo’s for an interception. Ponder, entering a critical third season for his future as Minnesota’s quarterback, only took those two snaps. Patriots 31, Eagles 22 Michael Vick took an early lead over Nick Foles in the first round of the Philadelphia Eagles’ quarterback competition. Tom Brady led the New England Patriots to a pair of 80-yard TD drives in his only two series in a win over Philadelphia. Vick threw a 47-yard touchdown pass to DeSean Jackson, but the new-look Eagles kicked off the Chip Kelly era the same way they ended Andy Reid’s long tenure — with another loss. Meanwhile, the Patriots have no QB controversies. Tim Tebow made his New England debut after backup Ryan Mallett left with a head injury late in the second quarter. Tebow was 4 of 12 for 55 yards and ran for 31 on four carries. As for Brady, the two-time NFL and Super Bowl MVP finished 7 of 8 for 65 yards and one TD. Dolphins 27, Jaguars 3 Ryan Tannehill played a little longer and a lot smoother in his second preseason game. The Jacksonville Jaguars can only hope Blaine Gabbert will do the same. Tannehill completed 5 of 9 passes for 75 yards, including a 22-yard touchdown pass to newcomer Dustin Keller, and the Dolphins thumped the Jaguars in a preseason game.

Reddick belts three as A’s romp BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Oakland pitcher Jarrod Parker works against the Toronto Blue Jays duringthe first inning Friday.

Josh Reddick broke out of a slump by homering in three consecutive at-bats, Jed Lowrie and Yoenis Cespedes also connected and the Oakland Athletics beat the Toronto Blue Jays 14-6 on Friday night. Reddick was hitless in his previous 20 at-bats before connecting off Esmil Rogers with a solo blast in the second inning that hit the facing of the second deck in right. He hit another solo homer in the fifth, an opposite-field shot to left off reliever Neil Wagner, then smacked a three-run drive off Juan Perez in the sixth. The home runs were the sixth, seventh and eighth of the season for Reddick, who has three career multihomer

games. All three homers came with two outs. Reddick is the sixth player this season to hit three homers in a game. It’s the first three-homer game by an Athletics player since Erubiel Durazo did it in a 5-4 victory at Baltimore on Aug. 18, 2004, hitting a pair of two-run homers and a solo shot. Jarrod Parker worked six innings as the Athletics won for just the second time in eight games and prevented Texas from overtaking them for first place in the AL West. Parker (8-6) allowed three runs and six hits in six innings, walked one and struck out six to win back-to-back starts for the first time since a three-game

winning streak from May 28 to June 7. Twins 7, White Sox 5 Justin Morneau hit late two homers, including a grand slam, and the Minnesota Twins rallied to win the first game of a day-night doubleheader on Friday. The White Sox traded Alex Rios to Texas before the game and were headed toward their fourth straight win before things turned in the seventh inning. Morneau’s drive off reliever Nathan Jones with two out in the seventh wiped out a 3-1 deficit. He added a solo drive in the ninth off Ramon Troncoso, making it 7-3. Glen Perkins gave up a two-run single to Alexei

Ramirez in the bottom half before striking out Adam Dunn to end the game. Angels 5, Indians 2 Jered Weaver chalked up another win in Cleveland and Josh Hamilton hit a three-run homer as the Los Angeles Angels ended their four-game losing streak with a victory over the Indians, who dropped their fifth in a row. Weaver (7-5) allowed two runs and six hits in seven innings. The right-hander has dominated at Progressive Field, going 6-0 in nine career starts. According to the Angels, he entered the game as the first pitcher since 1916 to be 5-0 or better with an ERA of 1.52 or lower at any road ballpark.

KELLY: Some players held out of DUFNER: Leader shows no nerves until opportunity to set new record Woods went to the position to win the PGA doubt, and Dufner showed practice, but injuries not serious the front nine to get back weekend. range with his swing coach, Championship two years them at the very end.

“Not talking about Manti Te’o and the Alabama game and all that … we were able to focus on this year and ourselves,” Kelly said. “That’s a good thing.” One thing Kelly wasn’t happy about was the way running backs were fumbling, stopping the practice momentarily to yell at them. Among the young players who looked good during practice Friday were wide receiver Corey Robinson, whose father is former NBA standout David Robinson and running back Greg Bryant. Linebackers Dan Fox and Carlo Calabrese, who shared a position last season, were on the field

frequently Friday, while Jarrett Grace, who is expected to compete for the position vacated by Te’o, spent most of the day with the second team. But Kelly said he expects all three to play and said another player could be added to the rotation. Starting linebacker Danny Spond didn’t practice Friday, guard Conor Hanratty wasn’t in pads, cornerback Bennett Jackson saw limited action and receiver Daniel Smith spent much of practice on a stationary bike. Aside from saying Hanratty has a neck strain, all Kelly would say is that none of the injuries are expected to miss the seasonopener against Temple on Aug. 31.

into contention. When the second round finally ended, 27 players remained under par — this on a course that is stubborn when it comes to par. In five previous majors at Oak Hill, only nine players have finished the tournament in red numbers. Jack Nicklaus did it twice. The cut was at 143, the lowest at the PGA Championship since 2001 at Atlanta Athletic Club. For all the low scores, Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson were left behind. Woods couldn’t get anything going, exchanging birdies with bogeys during a poor putting round that led to an even-par 70. He was at 1-over 141 and 10 shots back going into the

trying to find answers. He has only one score in the 60s in 14 rounds at the majors this year. “Obviously, I’m going to have to put together a really good weekend,” Woods said. “This golf course is pretty soft. It’s definitely gettable. Got to hit the ball in play and keep the ball near the hole so I can be aggressive with my putts.” Mickelson’s swing apparently went missing in the three weeks since he won the British Open. He was all over Oak Hill and still managed a 34 on the back nine until his wild shots caught up with him. Another 71 left him 11 shots out of the lead. Dufner was in prime

ago when he had a four-shot lead with four holes to play, only to be tracked down by Keegan Bradley and then beaten in a playoff. Dufner said that day he would only be disappointed “if I never get another chance.” And here he is, in record fashion. Dufner’s popularity has grown the last two years because of his zombie state. He was responsible for the craze known as “Dufnering” in April when someone took a photo of him slumped against a classroom wall, eyes in a daze, during a charity event at an elementary school as the teacher taught children how to relax and concentrate. But there were nerves, no

A 6-foot birdie putt on the 16th hole put him at 7 under for the round, and his 15-foot birdie putt on the next hole grazed the cup. He followed with two flawless swings on the tough 18th hole, which had yielded only four birdies at that point. That left him about 12 feet below the hole. And he left it short by about 18 inches. There even was a nervous moment on the tap-in, when the ball came off the putter weakly and dove in the right corner of the cup. “It’s tough when you’re chasing history,” Dufner said. “You will be the first one to do something. I don’t think I’ve been the first to do anything in my life.”

Voice of Michigan football to retire after this season ANN ARBOR, Mich. (AP) — This season will be the last for Michigan football radio broadcaster Frank Beckmann. Athletic director Dave Brandon released a statement Friday, thanking Beckmann for more than 30 years of service and praising him for “some of the great calls” in the history of Wolverines football. Beckmann has called games since 1981, following another longtime broadcaster, Bob Ufer, who died that year. The 63-yearold Beckmann says he’s been working fall Saturdays for decades and wants to step aside while he has time for other pursuits. Beckmann says he’s already excited about his last Michigan home game, Nov. 30, against rival Ohio State. Away from football, Beckmann has a morning talk show on Detroit radio station WJR.

NFL forcing Colts’ Mathis to use standard face mask ANDERSON, Ind. (AP) — The NFL won’t allow Colts defensive end Robert Mathis to use his face mask on game days. League spokesman Brian McCarthy wrote in an email to The Associated Press that the NFL determined it was a prohibited non-standard face mask. At training camp, Mathis has been wearing cagey-looking white face mask that covers up just about everything except his eyes. Several players around the league including Arizona’s Darnell Dockett and the Giants’ Justin Tuck have been using similar face masks, and those also will be disallowed. The only exception to wearing a customized face mask, McCarthy said, would be for a medical reason. Mathis used his Twitter account to explain the decision. “its official…. the league says i cant wear my facemask. I will return to my run of the mill grill,” he wrote. Mathis is a five-time Pro Bowl player and is second on the Colts’ career sacks list with 91 1/2. He wasn’t surprised by the decision. On Thursday, he used Twitter to explain that he “may not” win the battle with the league office and asked fans: “anybody got pics/suggestions of a face mask within the horizontal4 and vertical3 guidelines?” One fan even responded by urging Mathis to file an appeal. Mathis hasn’t said what face mask he will use, but presumably it will fall within the bounds of league rules.

Castroneves sustains minor injuries while driving stock car SAO PAULO (AP) — IndyCar points leader Helio Castroneves sustained minor injuries after crashing during practice for a stock car race in Brazil. The three-time Indy 500 winner sustained cuts on his legs and had neck and back pain after the crash Friday in Ribeirao Preto. He left the wrecked car on his own but was taken to a medical center in an ambulance as a precaution. Castroneves’ spokesman, Americo Teixeira, said the Penske Racing driver was doing well and the injuries were not serious. He said Castroneves was expected to compete in Sunday’s race, although clearance from doctors would not be given until more tests were conducted on his neck and back. Seeking his first IndyCar title, Castroneves has a 31-point lead over Scott Dixon.

Ex-Milwaukee Braves star Johnny Logan dies at age 86 MILWAUKEE (AP) — Johnny Logan, a four-time All-Star shortstop who helped the Milwaukee Braves win the 1957 World Series, has died. He was 86. The Milwaukee Brewers said Logan died Friday at Clement J. Zablocki VA Medical Center. In 13 seasons with the Boston and Milwaukee Braves and Pittsburgh Pirates, Logan hit .268 with 93 home runs and 547 RBIs. He finished his playing career in Japan in 1964, and later worked was a scout with the Brewers. “Johnny Logan was a longtime friend to Milwaukee baseball,” the Brewers said in a statement. “His connection to both the Brewers and the Braves and the Milwaukee community was very strong. “Virtually every person associated with the Milwaukee Brewers has been touched by Johnny through his many visits to the ballpark and terrific stories about his time in the game. We will miss Johnny deeply and will never forget his colorful character and personality.” Logan, from Endicott, N.Y. was honored by the Brewers last month.

Downstate hog farm sparks major opposition BROOKSTON (AP) — The pigs are coming. That much is almost certain. More than 9,000 of them, packed together in a huge warehouse in White County, pumping out as much bodily waste each year as the entire human population of Greater Lafayette. What no one yet knows is just how bad they will smell, how much runoff they may produce and how neighboring property owners will be affected. If the best hopes of John Erickson, the farmer who is building the facility, and state and local regulators and pork industry officials are realized, the impact will be minimal, and worth the benefits to society at large in terms of lower pork prices at the supermarket. But if the worst fears of some environmentalists and industry experts come to pass, neighbors such as Camp Tecumseh, David Krause and Janet Rose could see their enjoyment of their properties overwhelmed by the stink and the mess. Krause and his wife purchased 67 acres just southeast of the proposed hog operation years ago for their retirement. An architect has drawn plans for their dream home at White County Road 1025 South and Springboro Road. But now Krause doubts that dream will ever materialize. “If Erickson could keep his dust and his smell and his water on his property, no one would care,” Krause told the Journal & Courier, “but he cannot guarantee that.” Janet Rose and her husband, Louis, own a house in Walnut Ridge subdivision in White County, a neighborhood just west of the Tippecanoe

River and north of Indiana 18. Rose’s house is less than a mile from where Erickson wants to build the concentrated animal feeding operation, or CAFO, capable of housing up to 9,240 hogs. The size of the operation and nearness to her neighborhood, and to Camp Tecumseh just east of Walnut Ridge, worry her. “I like the Ericksons, and they’re good people,” said Rose, who has lived in Walnut Ridge since 2005. “My worries are about the land and the air and the pollution and the road . bringing all the trucks through here.” Tecumseh, a 600-acre YMCA camp, has been host to outdoor activities for 5,000 campers during warm summer months for 90 years. Another 25,000 adults, including church groups and corporations, use facilities at the natural setting each year. Ever since the White County Board of Commissioners voted July 1 to rezone 7 acres of Erickson’s land from general agriculture to agricultural industry, Camp Tecumseh’s board members have been weighing their options, which include legal action. The conflict brewing in this corner of southeast White County is not unique. Battles over expanding hog operations have been fought all across Indiana and the Midwest. The White County case is just the latest and highest profile example of market forces in the meat industry that are pressuring farmers to reduce costs by concentrating more pigs under one roof, even if it means going against longtime neighbors. Can consumers and

CAFO’s coexist? It depends on who’s doing the talking. Mike Smolek is a White County hog producer who knows exactly what Erickson is up against, both in his struggle with neighbors and the struggle to stay viable. Smolek also is one of seven White County Area Plan Commission members who, in a 7-2 vote on June 10, recommended that the board approve Erickson’s rezoning request. Smolek works alongside his dad, mom and two brothers on the family-run hog, crop and grain milling operation near Idaville. Smolek’s father, Ray, owns 37 hog barns near Idaville that produce 120,000 hogs a year. Odors emanating from gestation and farrowing barns are not overwhelming but grow more noticeable as visitors walk closer. Industry changes, Mike Smolek said, have dictated the push to build large barns where thousands of animals — beef, dairy, poultry, sheep — are raised in controlled environments. Such environments reduce costly diseases, produce economies of scale, and put meat on the table at the least cost. To stay in business, a farmer has little choice but to grow bigger, he said. “There are no more mom and pops, because they didn’t have the economies of scale. No bankers will loan money unless the animal operation fits their system, and the meatpackers want the product to fit their system. We’re basically a piece of the puzzle,” Mike Smolek said. Half of the hogs the Smoleks raise are contracted for sale to Indiana Packers Corp. in Delphi.

More than half a ton of hog The Stockdale family of Chelsea, Ind., swept the top two spots in the World’s Largest Hog competition at the Indiana State Fair. They are shown with their male hog, Reggie, took the title by tipping the scales at 1,205 pounds. He also won the title in 2011. The 6 year-old Red Wattle beat out his

half-brother, Ace, by 35 pounds in what has become a very large sibling rivalry. The family didn’t plan on having the World’s Largest Male Hog when they bought him four years ago, but now they wouldn’t have it any other way.

Master Gardener classes set On Thursday, Aug. 29, the DeKalb, LaGrange, Noble, and Steuben county educators will join together to teach the Fall 2013 Master Gardener Intern Class. The Master Gardener program began in 1972 when an Extension Agent in Washington state found himself overwhelmed with gardening questions from suburban gardeners in his county. His solution: to create a training program for volunteers to work in a plant clinic to help answer gardening questions. The program was so successful that other areas began using volunteers, and so the Master Gardener program was born. The Purdue Master Gardener Program is one way that the Purdue Cooperative Extension Service puts knowledge to work and helps people grow throughout Indiana. The Master Gardener Program helps gardeners grow by providing them with intensive training in horticultural principles. Participants, in turn, share

their knowledge by providing volunteer leadership and service to their communities. The Master Gardener Training Program will provide training in the following areas: plant science, plant nutrition, soils, insects, plant disease, ELYSIA weeds, vegetable RODGERS gardening, annual and perennial flowers, tree care, identification and lawn care. The training sessions will begin on Thursday, Aug. 29, and continue each Thursday evening through Dec. 12, with a couple off weeks. Training sessions will be held from 6-9 p.m. unless otherwise announced. Location for training will be at the Helmer United Methodist Church. The church is located on S.R. 327

•

about a half-mile north of the junction with S.R. 4 on the north side of Helmer. The fee for this training will be $150 per person or $250 per couple sharing one set of materials, payable in full by Aug. 26, unless special arrangements are made in advance. Contact your county Extension office to pay the fee and to fill out an application for the training program. There will be a class limit of 45 people, first come, first served. If you have any questions about the program, or would like to sign up, you can contact Elysia Rodgers in DeKalb County at 925-2562, Doug Keenan in Noble County at 636-211, Steve Engleking in LaGrange County at 499-6334, Steuben County at 668-1000 ext. 1400. We look forward to seeing you there! ELYSIA RODGERS is the agriculture and natural resources director for the Purdue University Cooperative Extension Service in DeKalb County.

Webinar to offer ag outlook WEST LAFAYETTE — Where the Indiana agricultural economy might be headed in 2014 will be the topic of a webcast from Purdue University on Aug. 16. The all-day program involves the in-depth outlook in 10 subject areas presented by professors from the departments of agricultural economics and animal sciences who are experts on their topics. There is no fee, and no registration is required. Participants are encouraged to check the schedule for presentation times of topics of their interest. They can watch the program on their computers, tablets or smart phones.

The webinar will begin at 8:30 a.m., with a discussion of the prospects for the U.S. and global economy. This will be followed by an update of the agricultural policy stalemate in Washington, D.C., and the prospects for Congress working through their differences toward a new farm bill. That pathway looks uncertain, with Congress on break until Sept. 9 and the current law set to expire at the end of that month. Additional details of the schedule and the connection requirements can be found online at ag.purdue.edu/agecon/Pages/Outlook-2014. aspx

Briefs •

ISLAMABAD (AP) — The U.S. has warned Americans not to travel to Pakistan and evacuated most government personnel from the country’s second largest city because of a threat to the consulate there, a U.S. official said Friday, the latest example of the danger facing diplomats operating in volatile parts of the Muslim world. The action came amid a flurry of deadly militant attacks in Pakistan. It also followed an al-Qaida threat to U.S. diplomatic posts in the Middle East and North Africa that American officials said was unrelated to the situation in Pakistan. U.S. consulates have been attacked previously in different parts of Pakistan, and Washington is still scarred by the memory of the attack last year on a diplomatic post in Benghazi, Libya, that killed U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans.

Nagasaki marks bombing anniversary TOKYO (AP) — Nagasaki’s mayor criticized Japan’s government on Friday for failing to back an international nuclear disarmament effort as the country marked the 68th anniversary of the atomic bombing of his city. Mayor Tomihisa Taue said Japan’s inaction “betrayed expectations of the global community.” Japan refused in April to sign an unconditional pledge by nearly 80 countries to never use nuclear weapons. The document, prepared by a U.N. committee, is largely symbolic because none of the signatories possesses nuclear weapons. Countries with nuclear arsenals that have not signed it include the United States, Russia, India and Pakistan. Japan does not have nuclear weapons and has pledged not to produce any, although some hawkish members of the ruling party say the country should consider a nuclear option. Taue said that as the world’s only victim of atomic bombings, Japan’s refusal to join the initiative contradicts its non-nuclear pledge.

People • Man pleads guilty in Deen extortion case SAVANNAH, Ga. (AP) — A New York man has pleaded guilty in federal court to trying to extort $200,000 from Paula Deen by threatening to reveal damaging information about the embattled celebrity cook if she didn’t pay him. Thomas George Paculis told a U.S. District Court judge Friday in Savannah: “I did try to take money from her.” The 62-year-old said he wanted to make a deal with Deen’s lawyer to sign a nondisclosure agreement because “I thought that would make this more legal.”

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama signed into law Friday a measure restoring lower interest rates for student loans, pledging the hard-fought compromise would be just the first step in a broader, concerted fight to rein in the costs of a college education. Encircled by lawmakers from both parties in the Oval Office, Obama praised Democrats and Republicans alike for agreeing — finally — on what he called a sensible, reasonable approach to student loans even as he cautioned that “our job is not done.” “Feels good signing bills. I

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama said Friday he was reassessing the U.S. relationship with Russia because of a growing number of issues on which the two countries differ, and he lamented what he called his mixed success in trying to persuade Russian leader Vladimir Putin to abandon a Cold War mentality. Obama’s comments at a White House news conference just two days after cancelling a planned summit with Putin next month came as senior U.S. and Russian officials met at the State Department to look at areas in which cooperation is possible. Those officials put a brave face on the badly strained ties and said the meeting produced some tangible results on the military front and on the push to forge a political solution to the crisis in Syria, among other issues. Obama said Putin’s return to the Kremlin last year had brought about “more rhetoric on the Russian side that was anti-American, that played into some of the old stereotypes about the Cold War contest between the United States and Russia.” “I’ve encouraged Mr. Putin to think forward as opposed to backward on those issues, with mixed success,” he told reporters. He said he decided not to attend the summit because “Russia has not moved” on a range of issues where the U.S. would like to see progress. He said his unhappiness with Russia granting asylum to NSA leaker Edward Snowden was one reason, but not the only one, for his decision. “I think the latest episode is just one more in a number of emerging differences that we’ve seen over the last several months around Syria, around human rights issues where, you know, it is probably appropriate for us to take a pause, reassess where it is that Russia’s going, what our core interests are, and calibrate the relationship so that we’re doing things that are good for the United States and, hopefully, good for Russia,” Obama said. He added that no one could hope for 100 percent agreement and that differ-

haven’t done this in a while,” Obama said, alluding to the difficulty he’s faced getting Congress, particularly the Republican-controlled House, to approve his legislative priorities, such as gun control and budget deals. “Hint, hint,” he added to laughter. But even the feel-good moment at the White House came with reminders of the bitter partisanship that still makes future deals incredibly difficult for Obama. House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, called the law part of the “Republican jobs plan,” while House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi of

California said it “stands in stark contrast to the House Republicans’ plan to saddle families with billions more in student debt.” The rare compromise emerged only after a frenzy of summer negotiations, with lawmakers at odds over how loan rates should be set in the future even while they agreed that a doubling of rates — it kicked in July 1 when Congress failed to act before the deadline — would be bad policy and bad news for students. The legislation links student loan interest rates to the financial markets. It offers lower rates this fall because

the government can borrow money cheaply at this time. If the economy improves in the coming years as expected, it will become more costly for the government to borrow money, and that cost would be passed on to students. About 11 million students this year are expected to have lower interest rates, saving the average undergraduate $1,500 on interest charges on this year’s loans. Boehner called it “a good day” and a fine example of what Washington can accomplish when petty partisanship is put aside. “With the stroke of a pen, we’ve now officially taken the

politics out of student loans,” he said. Obama cast the student loan deal as just the first of many measures the U.S. needs to make college affordable as a higher-tech economy makes advanced training and education a necessity for many workers. “The cost of college remains extraordinarily high. It’s out of reach for a lot of folks,” Obama said, calling it a burden as well on families who have to balance other priorities, like buying a home, with helping fund their children’s educations. “We’ve got to do something about it.”

ences could not be completely disguised. But he said U.S.-Russian cooperation is important. “We’re going to assess where the relationship can advance U.S. interests and increase peace and stability and prosperity around the world,” Obama said. “Where it can, we’re going to keep on working with them. Where we have differences, we’re going to say so clearly.” Obama praised trade and arms control successes that the U.S. and Russia were able to seal when he was dealing with former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev. Obama played down suggestions that he and Putin do not get along. “I don’t have a bad personal relationship with Putin. When we have conversations, they’re candid. They’re blunt. Oftentimes, they’re constructive,” he said. But, he took a shot at the often dour-looking Russian leader for his demeanor in meetings and appearances before reporters.

FORT HOOD, Texas (AP) — Attorneys being forced to advise the soldier accused in the 2009 Fort Hood shooting rampage were allowed to leave his trial on Friday so they could prepare an appeal arguing that the Army psychiatrist was angling for a death sentence. Military lawyers ordered to help Maj. Nidal Hasan as he represents himself argue that he’s using a “repugnant” defense strategy that violates their rules of professional conduct. When the judge refused to scale back their duties or let them take over Hasan’s defense, they said they would seek the help of a higher court. Hasan is accused of killing 13 people and wounding more than 30 others at the Texas military base, but he has largely remained silent during the trial. He questioned none of the 10 witnesses who testified Friday morning, after allowing two of his three standby lawyers to leave to prepare their appeal. Only his lead standby lawyer remained in the courtroom as testimony resumed, with witnesses describing a chaotic, bloody

scene inside a crowded building at the Army post on Nov. 5, 2009. “I kind of sat there looking dumbfounded,” said Capt. Brandy Mason, who recalled being shot but initially thinking it was only a sharp pain. “I didn’t think it was real. We sat there and looked at (Hasan), like ‘Really?’ Then somebody started screaming, ‘Training or not, get down! Get down!’” Staff Sgt. Joy Clark said she checked for vital signs of soldiers lying dead near her. “I had thought about possibly throwing a chair at the shooter but witnessed someone else do that and get shot,” Clark said. Sgt. 1st Class Paul Martin recalled bolting out a set of double doors and then

running a zigzag pattern to make him a less easy target. “I said he’ll have to shoot me again, but I know I’m getting out of this building,” Martin said. Hasan declined to cross-examine the witnesses and mostly sat quietly, as he has done since his long-delayed trial began early this week. How Hasan would defend himself was the biggest mystery heading into the trial that began under tight security at Fort Hood. The Americanborn Muslim wanted to argue that the killings were in “defense of others,” namely members of the Taliban fighting Americans in Afghanistan. But the judge denied that strategy.

Girls worried about sleeping arrangements DEAR ABBY: I’m 16 and have a 13-year-old sister. Our parents are divorced, and we live with our mother. We used to see our dad on visitations every other weekend, but he moved away, so now we see him for two weeks in the summer and one week during Christmas. We talk to him a lot and have a good relationship. We’re scheduled to visit him soon. Dad lives in a one-bedroom apartment and when we’re there, he lets us stay in the bedroom and he sleeps on the couch. He has just told us he is “coming out of the closet” and has a partner who is living with him. They plan on getting married now that it’s legal. When I asked him what the sleeping arrangements will be, he said he hasn’t figured it out yet, but will work it out. We’re really not surprised to find out that

ABLE: Of this I am sure, your father and his partner will welcome you with open arms and do everything in their power to show you a good time. You and your sister should go and try to be gracious guests. I agree, the space may be cramped, but it’s only for two weeks. After they marry, they may move to larger quarters. If you don’t enjoy the visit, keep in mind that in two years you will be 18 and no longer “obligated” to spend three weeks with your dad.

time, then go away, then come back and cluster again. Cluster headaches are like migraine headaches in some respects. The principal difference is that migraines tend to be a frequent and recurring problem; they don’t come in clusters and then go away entirely for a very long time. Another difference is that migraines occur mainly in girls and women, whereas cluster headaches occur mainly in men. Cluster headaches are often treated with a drug called sumatriptan (Imitrex). It works by narrowing blood vessels in the brain and stopping pain signals from being sent to the brain. When given promptly by injection at the start of a headache, sumatriptan can relieve cluster headache attacks within 15 minutes. Another effective treatment is inhaling pure oxygen. Oxygen can be administered in an emergency room or at

DEAR DOCTOR K: I get excruciatingly painful cluster headaches. What can I do to treat, or better yet, prevent them? DEAR READER: Cluster headaches are rare. Only about one adult in a thousand suffers from them. But they are among the most painful of all headaches. We doctors have theories about what causes cluster headaches, but the fact is that we don’t really know. They do run in families: There is an inherited, genetic component. A typical cluster headache begins suddenly, often waking a person from sleep. The pain is intense, sharp and penetrating. It usually occurs behind one eye. That eye may start weeping and become bloodshot. The eyelid may droop, and the nostril may first be stuffy and then runny. The few patients I have seen with this condition tell me that the pain may be so intense that they feel like banging their heads against a

Dad is gay, and we can accept that. But we’re really uncomfortable about spending two weeks in a one-bedroom apartment along with his partner when we don’t even know what the sleeping DEAR arrangewill ABBY ments be. We’d like to find a way to get Jeanne Phillips out of the visit, but we don’t want to hurt our dad, and because of the visitation agreement, he has the right to have us for two weeks every summer. What can we do? — UNCOMFORTABLE IN CALIFORNIA DEAR UNCOMFORT-

home from a portable tank. An injection of dihydroergotamine (DHE-45) can quickly alleviate severe pain as well. You should also talk to your doctor about medication to prevent cluster headaches. You’ll start taking the preventive drug when your headache first comes on, and you take the medication for as long your episodes generally last. Most doctors start with a sustained-release form of the calcium-channel blocker verapamil (Calan, others). Another option is high doses of steroids such as prednisone, which can prevent further attacks within 24 to 48 hours. Once you’ve interrupted the pattern, your doctor can slowly reduce the dose to the minimum necessary to suppress your headaches. DR. KOMAROFF is a physician and professor at Harvard Medical School.
